Didn’t bring what I ordered: instead of soup charcho I got some other soup, which they just brought and didn’t even tell what it was. Khinkhali were 3 out of 10. 2 in 5 Khinkalies were torn and didn’t taste well. In the end it turned out that no card payment accepted, so had to go withdraw some. The guy in the restaurant to the question why won’t they let us know in advance about only cash payment said that everyone has cash on them and it’s not normal not to bring cash. 2 out of 5 as for me.

Теплейший прием! Хозяин лично всех приветствует и принимает заказ. Добрый и приятный дядечка поболтал с нами, как со своими детьми. Блюда вкусные, овощи свежие и свои. Буду возвращаться не раз, рекомендую всем!

We got into this place by accident, we were launched with two adult dogs and there were no problems with it. At first, they laughed wildly at the atmosphere and the interior, but then, when the food was brought to us, it was no longer funny. Incredibly tasty and cheap. The friendly hostess offered wine as a compliment. As a result, for 30 GEL we ate too much and drank a bottle of wine. We have not found anything better in terms of price-quality ratio in Tbilisi.

For such a Georgia, I came to a place with an atmosphere and a history of wonderful people! We met by chance on the street, called to a cafe, and we were just looking for somewhere to eat . We ordered khinkali, eggplant and khachapuri . We were delighted with the quality and taste . Grandpa Mirabchik treated us to wine, sat with us, and had a heartfelt chat . Here we need to catch vibe, feel like bringing only positivity and a smile to the world, and that's it It's going to be okay

We spent a soulful evening at this place. The host and hostess are very hospitable, open-minded people. Tapaka chicken is out of competition, just a cannon👍🏻 the atmosphere of typical Georgian hospitality. If you're expecting a well-trained Michelin restaurant staff, then you're past it. The atmosphere of Soviet Georgia reigns here, which many involved miss and return to the restaurant for nostalgic memories.

We passed by, and the owner of the establishment actively invited us here from the street. We decided to come back in a couple of days: we were disappointed. It was very cold in the room (I had to sit in jackets), the menu was very shabby, it was unpleasant to pick up. We placed an order (not all items were available), we waited a very long time for food, two salads simply did not arrive for us. The chicken shish kebab turned out to be not a shish kebab, but a half-cooked chicken fried in a frying pan with a lot of oil. Ojahuri (aka potatoes with meat) I didn't like it either, the small pieces of chicken had bones that showed up when you chew. Also, one of our company noticed that his plate and utensils were dirty. Since we didn't get the salads, we wanted to pay for the food and leave, but there was no one in the cafe, and we had to wait a long time for someone to show up. After that, we asked for the bill, and they told us the amount was obviously more than how much we had eaten. When we asked for the check, the man counted it and immediately it turned out that the amount should be lower, plus they also wanted to count us for salads that were not brought. For some reason, it was also impossible to pay with a card, which no one informed in advance. I do not recommend visiting this place, there are many good other places nearby.

I don't understand why they give high marks here. We came back from a long trip to have dinner with the kids. None of the customers were in the restaurant. We were served by a man in a jacket, in which he occasionally ran around smoking at the door. The place smelled of cigarettes. We took orders for a long time, but they didn't bring anything at all ( and the cherry on the cake, instead of a bottle of Tarragon soda, they brought us a strange strong drink!!! It's good that the kids didn't have time to try((( The bill was announced verbally, no check was brought.... In general, we were not left with a good impression of the establishment.

Having accidentally come to the cafe of Mirab, Mirabchik, as his friends call him, we were so fascinated by the atmosphere and hospitality of this institution that we became his frequent guests! We like everything - delicious food, excellent wine, nostalgia for the USSR, which sounds very unobtrusively in this cafe. Well, let's have a separate conversation about Mirab, an extraordinarily generous person who unites everyone who sits at the tables in the hall with his warmth and love. Mirab can make a holiday out of a weekday lunch or dinner for her dear guests! "I love Georgia" is the most delicious and soulful place on the map of Tbilisi!

We regularly visit Grandpa Merab's cafe and always gain strength and positivity here!) A place for spiritual relaxation with a good company, grandpa unites visitors with toasts and stories From the menu, I can recommend shkmeruli, tobacco chicken, trout and eggplant rolls (sometimes, depending on the season, not all menus are available) The host offers the guests homemade wine as a welcome drink Remember, as in all of Georgia, there is a service fee here.

It's a great place. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by the owner of the establishment. He treated me to wine. The place is cozy. The atmosphere is homely, you come and just relax enjoying the delicious cuisine. I really liked khinkali. Since I'm not a fan of coriander, they didn't feel like they had coriander at all, which made me very happy. Thank you so much for the hospitality, for the cozy atmosphere, and pleasant communication. We will definitely visit this place as soon as we are in Georgia.

We visited Grandpa Mirab's cafe and were absolutely delighted! From the very first minutes, you feel the warmth and spiritual atmosphere, as if you came to visit your family. Grandpa Mirab greeted us with such sincere hospitality that it immediately became very cozy. The food deserves special praise — generous portions, rich taste and cooked with love. Mirab's grandfather is a true Georgian who shows generosity, kindness and respect to his guests. This place is a real corner of Georgia, where you want to come back again and again!

First of all, this place makes you fall in love with its homely atmosphere and, of course, its amazing and very sincere host, Mirabchik. With sincere involvement, he will help you feel comfortable. And since good people work there, good people are attracted there too. There are a lot of foreigners with whom you quickly start communicating because of the atmosphere, and now you are all sitting at the same table, laughing, chatting as if you have known each other for a hundred years)) The food is delicious, the homemade wine is pleasant, and everything is at an excellent, I would even say budget price! I definitely recommend this place! There are practically no places where you would be seen off as a family and everyone, despite different nationalities, is friends, so this feature is very valuable! Many thanks to Mirabchik and his wife for the warm welcome

Tired interior, dishes, and staff. The host was really welcoming. Pretty average Khinkali. Weak khachapuri in Adjarian style. Apart from beer and wine, there were no other drinks in the establishment. I didn't want alcohol at all. They offered tap water. But still, they served lemonade in plastic, like duchess, with lemon. Which turned out to be the tap water. About this, a naive scene was played out when issuing an invoice with +GEL 6 for it, which was supposedly an accident, the son put it in the refrigerator, not sealed. We were disappointed. But according to the peculiarities of national dishes, well-fed.

A very hospitable host, he invites passers-by. Inside, the atmosphere is a la the Soviet Union, but someone comes in, especially foreigners. The host treats you to homemade wine, the prices on the menu are very low-cost. But we only took cheese and eggplant with the wine, as we were not planning to have dinner, but were just passing by.

We went in just before closing time, hoping to order a takeaway. But that was not the case! The host sat down at the table, brought wine, salad, eggplant. He said there was no need to hurry, everything would be ready :) As a result, we sat down, chatted, and drank wine :) before leaving, a photo together and a warm farewell! Next time we visit, we will definitely visit this wonderful place more than once :)

It's an unpleasant place. Starting from the interior, ending with the treatment of the staff. A dirty floor, to which the sole sticks with a characteristic sound. Greasy menu. They mixed up the order, brought another dish (well, it happens). The food was served with the face of a disgruntled barmaid. Khinkali is mediocre. There is no payment by card (only cash), which was not initially notified to our company. We said it would be nice to warn you about the payment procedure in advance. In response, the manager mockingly joked that your problem was that you didn't keep any cash. We went to the bank and withdrew the money. An unpleasant experience.

In short: tasteless, uncomfortable, and untidy. The establishment is asking for updates. In everything. From the walls of the hall and its equipment, tables, dishes, and so on, to the toilet. The music is strange and doesn't match the name: A sawmill, a Circle, and the like. The wine is of low quality. Braga in Russian. In the order, they said three times two portions of kharcho, added a portion of shkmeruli and a portion of dolma. Not a word about what kind of grub it will be, because the pictures are standard, and not a word that they supposedly have chicken grub. They bring two portions of something gray-green in color. Are you sure this is kharcho? Yes! It contains only milk sauce and chicken, not a drop of spice. We ask: Aren't you mistaken? We needed to measure for the second one. And this, they tell us, is kharcho in Megrelian! OK, then where's the beef, garlic, onion, lots of herbs, and other treats? What besides walnuts from the Megrelian kharcho? And if you pass it off as a chicken meal, then at least tell us in advance what you are offering to customers. The dolma is very dry. On top of the four pieces is a strip of mayonnaise. It's actually very Georgian. The shkmeruli was offered in the form of fried, very salty chicken, sprinkled with garlic and filled with milk sauce. The final scandalously proved the authenticity of the dishes.

I strongly advise you not to go here, just to save your money, nerves and mood. The portions are small and tasteless, and the khinkali is store-bought. You can only pay with cash, and the prices are the same as in normal cafes in the area. Perhaps the most disgusting cafe in Georgia

We got good grades.. The place is terrible, it stinks of burning, the service is very long. The only advantage is that they serve wine to anyone who wants to. Of the food we ordered, we only had over-salted stewed eggplant, and there were no other vegetables. Ruined the impression on the last day of the vacation

I saw a rating of 4.8 and didn't look at the reviews, unfortunately. They immediately treated me to wine, and that's where the advantages end. We ordered shish kebab and potatoes with meat and lavash - not tasty, lots of fat, small portions. Lavash is just terrible, it feels like it's been around for days. The dishes are broken, the interior is specific, repairs have not been done for many years. There are oilcloths on the tables, flies are flying

The most unpleasant experience of visiting this place. To begin with, they did not warn that there was no cashless payment, they accepted the order, then it turned out that there was no terminal or transfers, only cash. They sent me to withdraw money at the nearest ATM (which is very inconvenient, because some ATMs have a commission) and made my friend sit and wait until I returned with the money. The dishes were of an extremely dubious appearance - the khinkali were small and dry, without broth inside, looked like semi-finished products, even the appetite was gone, the eggplant was floating in oil. A fly was flying in the establishment and my feet were sticking to the floor, which raises certain doubts about sanitary standards. In general, the interior and furnishings are also questionable, as if they came to someone's house, and not to an institution. It takes a lot of effort to find a worse place in Tbilisi (and anywhere else in general).

The most terrible place in Tbilisi. It's dirty. The guest service is provided by a not quite healthy woman.The dishes I ordered don't match what they should. Instead of trout, they brought some small chebak. Eggplant with vegetables is impossible to eat, too salty. Are there not enough appliances or dishes? It doesn't matter! We'll take out the dirty dishes from the mountain and serve them to the guests! Fortunately, the entire bar is littered. The price tag is not the same as on the menu, it turns out that another 10% fee is needed. But for what? If you value your health, time, and money, don't come here.

A wonderful place that preserves the atmosphere of old Georgia. The food is delicious at home, the best eggplant with nuts that we ate, delicious khinkali, excellent salads. The only thing is to plan more time for a visit, because Uncle Merab will not let you go just like that, and will pour you his homemade wine, which is sooooo delicious. We had 2 groups of guests who specially returned here to be in this homely atmosphere again.

This is an extraordinary place in Tbilisi, the soul of a hospitable city! My husband and I were looking for a place to have dinner, read the reviews and found this restaurant. The atmosphere is very atmospheric, the cordiality of the hosts is felt throughout. The host personally greets each guest, treats them with homemade wine, tells them about the dishes from the menu. The food is extremely tasty, homemade, cooked with a soul. They came just to eat, but parted like good old friends. Uncle Mirab, you're the best!!! When we are in Tbilisi, we will definitely come to this restaurant for dinner. 💗💗💗 I recommend it to everyone!
